Botox vs. Fillers, Which is right for you?

Botched Botox

 

Don’t be a victim of botched botox. Here at Austin Brewer Facial Aesthetics, we have been saying for a very long time.  All potential aesthetics clients, please do your research. Please be careful.  Importantly only use a medically qualified professional with suitable training and experience.  

But unfortunately, as this article in The Times Newspaper proves.  Also by the increasing number of clients visiting our Bournemouth & Harley Street clinics for corrective work.  People are still persuaded by cheap deals and the social media lure of free or heavily discounted treatments.  All for sharing and liking pages and posts.

Interesting fact…

Did you know that anyone can call themselves a nurse in the UK? 

Yes, you read that correctly, and yes, that is a very worrying thought.  

Many social media-based beauty and aesthetics clinics claim they have a nurse injector.  We advise you to ask for their registration number (all medical professionals Drs, Nurses, etc, all have a registration number.)  It is worth checking.  You can also search without their registration number.  Simply go to the NMC website for nurses or the GMC website for Drs and search using their name.  Check to see if they are who they are saying they are.  

Anyone willing to mislead someone by saying they are something they are not should immediately raise a red flag.  A person calling themselves a nurse when they are not is using dishonesty to obtain a potential client.  They are then going to proceed to inject into your face, this is completely shocking and shameful.

Did you know that unless the injector is a medical professional?  They will not be able to access the correct and legitimate aesthetics training? 

Are you aware that unless a medically trained injector administers your facial aesthetic treatment, you could be at serious risk of any number of complications, reactions and infections?

Did you know that all injectable toxins that are used for wrinkle relaxation?  Can legally only be purchased via a reputable UK pharmacy on prescription?  

Are you aware of the reason why unqualified non-medical injectors are not purchasing their products via a recognised UK pharmacy?   The answer is simple, they are not allowed to.  The reputable UK pharmacies do not recognise them as being suitable for carrying out such treatments.  Therefore, will not allow them to purchase the product.  

Did you know that a prescription should be used to purchase toxins and fillers?  Unfortunately, there are plenty of pharmacies popping up online and via social channels.  All of which are offering cheap products and are willing to sell to whoever.

The industry has recently been flooded with unreputable and untrustworthy practitioners.  Who are injecting their clients with products that come from unrecognised sources.  They are only interested in one objective – to take your money.  Such practitioners do not care about you.  They certainly do not have adequate training, should any complications arise or if you need immediate medical assistance.

Human Face - Austin Brewer Facial Aesthetics Bournemouth & Harleys Street London reviews Botched botox article from The Times Newspaper

The Human Face…

How could anyone who has zero medical training?   Who does not have the extensive medical knowledge that comes with training for at least three years, know this in detail?  It is seriously worrying,  just how dangerous it would be if you were injected in the wrong place.

 

Six reasons a medical professional is the only person you should trust to administer cosmetic injectables:

  • They have a professional code of conduct & ethics
  • A medical professional will have continual training requirements to maintain registration with a governing body – which is a legal requirement.
  • They are accountable for their actions via the governing body
  • A medical practitioner will have insurance
  • They have the comprehensive medical knowledge to manage any complications that should arise
  • They purchase their products from reputable U pharmacies with a prescription

 

Unfortunately, we live in a society where everyone wants a deal, whilst this is great for some areas of life.  Medical procedures are not the area to try and get a deal.  Wait and save for your treatment. You will not regret it.  

Cheap botox or cheap filler is cheap for a reason.  It usually means that corners are being cut, to still enable a profit.  

Cheap treatments always work out more expensive in the long run.  As inevitably the results don’t last that long and you end up having to re-treat sooner than should be necessary.  

Let’s do the maths on that cheap lip filler deal

Say you pay:

£120 for your lip filler – great

but then you need them redone again two months later 

so it will cost another £120 

Over the year, you will be paying £720 just for your lips. 

Or £1080 over one year 1/2

 

Not sounding like such a great deal now

Not to mention the increased trauma to your lips, having to have a needle put in them unnecessarily often. 

However, when you have treatment with Austin your lip filler will cost from £150*

Results will last you at least one year and potentially one year & 1/2.

The products we use are bought from a reputable UK pharmacy on prescription and have all the batch numbers, which are completely traceable from manufacture to you and your treatment.

(*dependent on the amount required for treatment ) We always suggest a thorough consultation to assess your suitability for treatment and to obtain an accurate price.

 

Every week we receive so many phone calls and emails that offer us cheap products or yet another new product.

We would never use these products as they have zero clinical evidence and backing.  It is impossible to know where these products have been made or if they are licensed for use in the UK.  

Not knowing what ingredients are in an unregulated toxin or dermal filler provided by an unscrupulous social media-based pharmacy can result in many terrible outcomes.  Very worst-case scenarios could be permanent facial disfigurement or even blindness.

But most importantly, we will never use our client’s well-being and safety to cut our costs. The products we use are more expensive, but that’s because they are the very best.  Our results last.  Treatments are administered by a medically trained professional with extensive knowledge, training and artistry.  

Look after your face, it’s the only one you have.  It deserves respect and care. If you would like to discuss your potential treatment, please book your consultation with Austin.

‘Black market’ Botox scars women for life

Practitioners with no professional medical qualifications use social media to target women and girls, an investigation by undercover Times reporters has found

February 2 2022, The Times

The medicines regulator has begun an investigation after undercover Times reporters found beauticians offering to inject women with “black market” Botox, putting them at risk of being disfigured for life.

Practitioners with no professional medical qualifications used social media to target women and girls, suggesting the treatments were safe and would enhance their looks. Many used products that have not gone through safety checks in Britain. Reporters confirmed that at least three practitioners advertising facial injections on social media sites were using cheap versions of Botox that are not licensed in the UK.

The Times Newspaper

At one beauty clinic in Wakefield, West Yorkshire, a man who presented himself as a doctor but is not registered with the General Medical Council tried to convince a female reporter to have 25 injections of an unlicensed product in her face.

Campaigners say they are receiving increasing reports of disfigurements such as permanent facial scarring and large sores caused by injections with unlicensed versions of Botox, often carried out in people’s homes and at beauty salons.

The Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency said it was reviewing the findings and would “take appropriate regulatory action where any non-compliance is identified”.

Sajid Javid, the health secretary, said the practices uncovered were “totally unacceptable” and officials were looking into whether legal changes were needed “to ensure no one is harmed”.

The Times investigation found:

Beauticians openly used social media to advertise facial injections using Botulax, Innotox and ReNTox, products from South Korea that are not licensed in Britain.

 A practitioner who said he was a doctor but is not registered to practise in Britain admitted to using Botulax because it was “cheaper” and allowed him to offer competitive deals in a northern town.

Suppliers offered to sell unlicensed versions of Botox to reporters with no questions about their medical training or how the product would be used.

Women said they had been scarred for life due to complications after believing they had been injected with unlicensed or illegitimate products.

Licensed brands of botulinum toxin, of which the best known is Botox, are prescription-only drugs. Although beauticians can administer the injections, they have to be trained and legally their clients must first have them prescribed by a registered prescriber, such as a doctor or a nurse with an additional qualification. The prescriber must only do this after a face-to-face consultation.

‘Black market’ Botox investigation: ‘If you know where you need to put it, nothing goes wrong’…

Reporters found several practitioners posting on social media that they offered unlicensed anti-wrinkle treatments.

During an appointment with two undercover reporters, Vilnis Karklins, who said he was a doctor trained in Latvia but is not registered with the General Medical Council here, tried to convince them that they should have multiple injections of Botulax in their faces.

He asked them to cross off the name of a licensed product on a consent form and write down “Botulax” instead, saying: “It’s just form, it doesn’t matter. It’s just a brand different.” Karklins, who offered the treatment for £145 — about half the typical price — said a prescription was not required and “nothing can go wrong” when he administered it.

 

Samantha Bennett, an aesthetic practitioner from Manchester who visits people at home to do anti-wrinkle injections, suggested that a female reporter should have 11 injections in her face. She offered treatments with Innotox and ReNTox, which are both not licensed for cosmetic use in Britain. There is no suggestion that these specific practitioners botched treatments.

A growing concern

Save Face, a register of accredited practitioners, said it was concerned about the use of unlicensed and illegitimate botulinum toxins. Its latest published figures show that in 2020 it received 270 complaints related to these procedures, up from 210 in 2019.

There is no suggestion that problems were caused by any specific brand. When an unlicensed drug is sold in the UK there is no way of knowing it is not counterfeit, with a fake product put inside a branded vial. Side effects can also be caused by poor hygiene or injecting technique.

One woman who suspected she was injected with an unlicensed product said she was scarred for life and unable to work as a result.

Last year it became a criminal offence to administer fillers to the under 18s. Javid said: “It is totally unacceptable for practitioners to offer unlicensed or unsafe products. We’ve already taken steps to protect children and young people from botched Botox or dodgy fillers and are looking into whether more needs to be done . . . to ensure no one is harmed.”

The MHRA said it was reviewing this newspaper’s findings. A spokeswoman said: “If a medicine is not authorised, there is no guarantee that it meets quality, safety and effectiveness standards required in the UK. This can endanger the health and welfare of people who take them.”

Karklins did not respond to requests for comment. Samantha Bennett, the Manchester practitioner, said that she was not aware the products she used were not licensed and that she bought them from a company that trained practitioners. “I’ve done nothing wrong,” she said.

Hugel, which manufactures Botulax, said the product was high-quality, safe, had undergone rigorous clinical trials and was licensed for use in 28 countries. However, it said it should not be ordered or used by practitioners in the UK.

It expressed concern about counterfeit products being sold under the Botulax brand name and said that problems such as facial lumps could not be related to the legitimate product. It said it closely monitored the supply of products claiming to be Botulax and took legal action against unauthorised distributors.

UK Licensed products only

A spokeswoman said it was inaccurate to describe Botulax as a black market product and that the firm was hoping to have a version of Botulax with a different brand name licensed in Britain in the near future after it recently completed a European approval process. “We strongly recommend consumers and practitioners to use products with official marketing approval.”

Medytox, which manufactures Innotox, said it did not sell this product in countries where it is not licensed, including in the UK. A spokesman said: “Medytox will take necessary measures if any illegal activities related to Innotox’s sales are found.”

Pharma Research Bio, which manufactures ReNTox, did not respond to requests for comment.

‘I cried all the time’
Victoria Lee said she was scarred for life after having botched anti-wrinkle injections at an acquaintance’s house (Charlotte Wace writes).

Real-life terrible experiences

Lee, 41, a make-up artist from Essex, did not believe there was any reason to be worried. Her acquaintance said she “always” had treatment with the practitioner.

“Not for one minute did I think there was anything wrong with it at all, I really didn’t,” Lee said.

A week after the treatment in 2020 marks began appearing on her face. These became “worse and worse” until they were large lumps that leaked blood and pus. She could not go to work and did not leave her home for months.

“It was horrendous,” Lee said. “I just got fat, lethargic, tearful, very down, I cried all the time.”

She contacted the practitioner, who eventually agreed to put her in touch with the supplier of the product. The company said it was unable to help. “Whatever it was they were using was not what it should have been,” she claimed.

Lee booked an appointment with her GP, who prescribed her antibiotics and told her to see a dermatologist. The areas that had been injected needed to be drained and biopsies were carried out. Lee now requires regular filler injections to fill the indentations that have been left in her face.  But treatment will only work to a certain extent.

“I am scarred for life. These marks on my face will never go. I’ve been told that” she said.

“I’m 41 and I should be in my prime. I’ve now got a job in a salon three days a week to get me back out there slowly. But you’re working in front of a mirror, all the time. You can’t get away from it.”

‘Black stuff started coming out’
Elizabeth, who is in her fifties, visited a beautician for anti-wrinkle injections after hearing about her from a “friend of a friend”. But there was no face-to-face consultation with a registered prescriber before the treatment last summer in northwest England.

Early alarm bells

During the appointment, she became concerned because a needle was left on a counter while the practitioner took a telephone call. Baby wipes were used instead of the sterile wipes she had expected. She asked what product was used and believed she was initially told it was Botulax.  Which is not registered for use in Britain, but the practitioner later told her it was a licensed product.

Elizabeth, who is a care professional and asked not to have her real name published.  Said that soon after the treatment she began experiencing pain in her face and could feel tiny lumps forming. The practitioner repeatedly advised her to drink water.

“The lumps on my forehead were hard, they burst and it was like black stuff coming out of them,” she said. The pain grew so bad that Elizabeth went to a walk-in centre.  Where a doctor asked if she had been “beaten up”.  She was sent to the hospital and recalled a nurse saying she had never seen that type of reaction from anti-wrinkle treatments before. Elizabeth was prescribed antibiotics and later paid to see a private dermatologist who gave her stronger medicine.

An ongoing issue following treatment

There were 13 lumps initially and two are still left. It is hoped that her face will heal in time.  But the experience has had a devastating effect on her self-confidence. She still does not know for certain what caused the problems.

“I have to go to work, otherwise I’d have no home,” Elizabeth said. “But I don’t go out socialising. My life revolves around either my job, my grandchildren or one or two friends coming to the house. I used to always go out but now I won’t. I got fed up with people saying, ‘What did you do with your face? It looks like you were beaten up . . . that looks terrible.’ ”

Non surgical facelift – All you need to know.

 

Would you like to freshen your appearance? Do you hear the term facelift and panic? What about a non-surgical facelift? So what is a non-surgical facelift or liquid facelift?  

 

 

In this blog, we will discuss all the details of a non-surgical facelift / liquid facelift at our Bournemouth & Harley Street London Aesthetics Clinic.  Dedicated to reversing the signs of ageing and restoring the youthfulness of your skin.  We will also explain how it can make a remarkable difference in how you feel and look.

For a transformation to reverse the signs of ageing, restore lost volume in the face and improve skin quality.  A non-surgical facelift can enhance your appearance and is appropriate for both men and women. 

Do you look in the mirror or at photos of yourself and wish you looked a little less tired or sad? Maybe you would like your complexion to look a little more radiant and glowing.  Or perhaps you feel saggy and that gravity has a bit too much of an advantage on you?  We can transform the way you look, but ensure you still look exactly like you, just a more youthful version of yourself.

Reversing the signs of ageing & still look natural

We all sometimes feel we need or would like a pick-me-up to look a little more youthful and fresher.  Perhaps you have a bump in your nose that you would like to smooth out.  Or maybe you would like to add a definition to your cheekbones or jawline?

Fortunately for our Bournemouth & Poole clients looking for a non-surgical facelift, the days of having to go under the knife to achieve amazing facial rejuvenation results are long gone.  Many of the facial areas that cause the most concern can be treated simply with cosmetic injectables such as dermal fillers or botox or the use of both combined.  

With little to no downtime injectable treatments such as botox and dermal fillers are gaining preference and popularity over the last few years.  These anti-ageing and wrinkle-busting treatments are becoming the best solution to the many facial concerns we all have.  And it’s no wonder, when these wrinkle-reducing treatments are administered in the correct way and by a medical professional.  The results can be outstanding and take 10+ years off you.  Improving your confidence and appearance.  When you know you look great, you feel great on the inside as well as the outside.

Ageing is a part of life,

however, whilst some can age and somehow not look their age at all.  Some of us are less fortunate and have premature lines and wrinkles, combined with sagging skin and lacklustre skin tone.  It’s no wonder we all put our hope into a small pot of face cream for a quick fix.  The bad news is that the corporate giants at these big companies that produce these “wonder products” make many claims.  Unfortunately, there is only so much that a little pot of cream can help with.  Mostly it will hydrate your skin and make it softer.  As for fixing those under-eye bags and shadows, it won’t work miracles, sorry to disappoint.  

This is where our Bournemouth aesthetics clinic is here for you.  Providing a non-surgical facelift / liquid facelift.  It’s not as drastic as it sounds, I promise.  Non-surgical facelifts vary for everyone.  There is no one size fits all, as everyone is so beautifully unique, so is your treatment.  A non-surgical facelift at Austin Brewer’s Clinic, whether in Harley Street or Bournemouth is unique and personalised to you.  

“I never understand how some aesthetics companies can offer fixed price and fixed product amounts in packages called such things as the Kylie package when they have no idea how much product each client will need?”

 

A non-surgical facelift won’t change the way you look like a regular facelift can when you go under the knife.  There is no over-stretched skin or pulled-tight look.  With any injectable treatment, as long as you are being treated by an experienced medical aesthetician, you will still look like you.  

 

What is a liquid face lift at Austin Brewer Facial Aesthetics? in Bournemouth Poole & Harley Street London

The benefits of a non-surgical facelift:

  • Less tired
  • Less saggy 
  • Fewer wrinkles
  • Eliminate/reduce jowls
  • Improved skin texture / reduced skin laxity
  • Improved volume  & facial shape
  • The structure of the face improved
  • Restore lost volume
  • Reverse the signs of ageing

 

The outcome following treatment will leave you looking refreshed and rejuvenated.  Your skin will look more radiant and lifted.  Lines will be erased and the lost volume will once again be visible where it once was.  If you would like even extra rehydration and skin glow you can combine a non-surgical facelift with the extremely popular Profhilo™.  Profhilo is a brilliant stand-alone treatment but combined with a non-surgical facelift it takes skin care to the next level.  By having these treatments regularly your skin will always be looking its very best.

Lifting and shaping the face…

using dermal fillers and botox is a specialised skill.  Understanding of the facial anatomy is paramount.  Having an artistic eye is also incredibly important.  As we mentioned earlier, everyone is unique.  The last thing you want is the same treatment as everyone else, as this will not suit your facial features.

Please don’t be worried that having dermal fillers injected into your face will make it look fat.  This is understandably, a very common concern. However, when dermal fillers are correctly injected and have the correct placement, they will actually slim your face.  You can find out more about how dermal fillers can actually contour and slim your face in this article here. It is only when an injector doesn’t know what they are doing or tries to use the same placement on everyone that things go wrong and you can end up with the dreaded pillow face.  

Over-treatment is also something to be very wary of.  A professional aesthetics practitioner will not be afraid to say no to further treatment if they do not feel it will be of benefit to you.  A reputable facial aesthetics practitioner will always have your best interests and well-being at the forefront of any potential treatments.  Yes, some people do need what sounds like a lot of filler to achieve the desired outcome.  However, it’s all about placement and individuality, not a package deal.

There is no right or wrong age to start any injectable treatments.  Everyone ages differently and there is no set timeframes on when you should start.  We always tend to say that if something is bothering you come and see Austin.  He can then asses if treatment would be appropriate or whether it should be left.

 

Clinically proven, world-leading products

“I use only the very best clinically proven range of dermal fillers and wrinkle-smoothing injectables available.  I source my products from a reputable UK pharmacy all by prescription.  The products that I use are Allergan Botox® Allergan Juverderm® Vycross Range and Profhilo®.  These products have the most clinical evidence and are the most advanced in the UK and the world.  They provide smooth natural results and longevity.”

3 Areas You Didn’t Know Dermal Fillers Could Be Used

Dermal fillers are incredibly versatile.  This is why we thought we would let you know 3 Areas You Didn’t Know Dermal Fillers Could Be Used.  They can be used in different ways and places depending on the target placement area and the thickness (viscosity) of the dermal filler.

Did you know that dermal fillers can be used in other areas and not just on your face? –  3 Areas you didn’t know dermal fillers could be used…

Have you had facial treatments? but maybe your neck, décolletage or hands are still giving the game away about your age?  Austin Brewer can provide the answer.  3 areas you didn’t know dermal fillers could be used.  Straightforward treatments that are long-lasting and will turn back the clock for these areas instantly.

The dermal fillers that are used at Austin Brewer are 100% hyaluronic acid.  This is a substance that is naturally present in the body (your eyeballs, joints and skin).  It can hold 1000 times its weight in water, which is why it makes such an excellent product to rejuvenate and replace lost volume.  Fillers are all naturally broken down by the body over time.  

Dermal fillers will fill wrinkles and add volume to soft tissue.  A series of small injections of the gel are precisely placed to deposit the filler to where it is needed.   These work to replace the lost collagen and elastin, which experts have agreed generally happens by our late 20’s! Worried that dermal fillers might move or migrate? read more here.

A straightforward procedure

With very little downtime, it’s no wonder that fillers are an optimum way to achieve youthful and glowing skin without the inconvenience of having to adjust your day-to-day life.  Having an injectable filler treatment is a quick and straightforward procedure when carried out by a medical professional who is proficiently trained.  

We always advise against trying to get a cheap deal when you are looking for an injectable treatment as unfortunately, you will always get what you pay for.  This mostly means a cheap product being used that is not prescribed for you and unsatisfactory results from bad injection technique.  Sadly we have seen far too many clients after having filler from a cheap deal, only to ask if we can help correct it. 

Removing dermal filler

Removal of filler is possible but does have its risks and complications too.  It is not something to consider lightly.  So please don’t think, “I can get cheap filler and if I don’t like it I can simply have it removed” This is not the way to think when you are considering an injectable treatment.  The incorrect placement of filler can have devastating effects before you even think about having it removed.  It is worth remembering, that there are far fewer practitioners who are competent at removing filler than those who are willing to inject you in the first place!  

Please stay safe and only use a reputable fully insured and trained medical professional.  

Austin Brewer is a highly qualified and experienced medical aesthetic practitioner.  

He has specialised in dermal filler treatments since 2004.   Austin will always offer you a thorough consultation.  You can ask all the questions you wish and Austin will be able to assess you and whether the treatment requested is appropriate for you.  This is so that all options can be discussed, and the full procedure explained, including cost and expected outcomes. 

Increasingly we have seen our clients are addressing ageing issues that go beyond just the usual facial area.  The neck, décolletage and backs of the hands have in the past been mostly overlooked.  However, with modern techniques and improvements in products, these procedures are deservedly facing a surge in popularity.  Often it’s the small details that can make a big contribution to your overall look.  With no downtime, these non-invasive treatments can literally turn back the clock.

The 3 areas you didn’t know dermal fillers could be used

Neck • Décolletage • Hands

We all know what the combination of ageing and the sun can do to our skin.  Unfortunately, our necks, décolletage and backs of our hands are in the sun just as much as our faces.   But most of the time they simply get overlooked when we apply SPF.  This can result in premature age and sun spots too (we can also provide treatment for these).  Combined with the lines and wrinkles, this can make these areas appear much older than the rest of you.  

The following information about 3 areas you didn’t know dermal fillers could be used.  All areas can be improved with a simple anti-ageing dermal filler treatment & safe removal of sun and age spots.

3 AREAS YOU DIDN’T KNOW DERMAL FILLERS COULD BE USED

 
3 AREAS YOU DIDN’T KNOW DERMAL FILLERS COULD BE USED Austin Brewer Facial Aesthetics Dermal fillers Harley Street, Bournemouth & Poole

NECK LINES

Neck lines appear over time and are a natural part of the ageing process.  Along with gravity, our necks begin to suffer the unwanted effects of lines and sagging.  However, that’s not to say that we can’t give your neck a little helping hand and turn back the clock.  We are prone to our necks ageing faster due to the dermis being thinner.  

Neck wrinkles are also becoming an issue in our modern age due to repeatedly looking down at our phones otherwise known as…Tech neck.  This new term has been used as a reference to how long we all spend looking down at our devices, and sadly our bodies, one way or another pay the price.  Alongside smoking, this seems to be one of the biggest contributors to the lines arriving on our necks prematurely. 

Treatment for the neck is straightforward and long-lasting.  Using dermal fillers lines on the neck can be smoothed away, leaving the neck looking instantly rejuvenated and youthful.  There is also another treatment for the neck lines, which involves botox, this will also help with the look of lines and “turkey neck” which happens due to sagging platysma muscles.  Both of these treatments provide excellent results in dealing with neck lines.

3 AREAS YOU DIDN’T KNOW DERMAL FILLERS COULD BE USED

DÉCOLLETAGE 

Decolletage or Décolleté this delicate area is all too often overlooked until one day the unloved area looks back at you in the mirror and you realise how neglected it has been.   The wrinkles that appear on your décolletage are due to a mixture of factors.  The main ones are age, sun exposure, gravity and diet.  All of these will have a contributory factor in the breakdown of the collagen and elastin in the middle layers of your skin. 

The same as the neck, the décolletage area is also prone to age and sun spots.   These sun and age spots can also be simply treated in the clinic.  When the skin is also creased and crepey it can make the skin in this delicate area look much older.  With a dermal filler treatment, the whole décolletage area will show a vast improvement.  The results will leave you with a completely rejuvenated appearance of the skin.  Treatment is long-lasting and will enhance the appearance of the décolletage area.

HAND WRINKLES

Hand wrinkle treatment with dermal fillers for hand wrinkles shows instant results.  Along with the neck and décolletage, the hands are another area we simply don’t pay enough attention to.  But the hands can show our age just as much as our faces. 

Our hands are put through a lot on a day-to-day basis so they deserve some special attention.  The skin is thin on the backs of our hands.  The ageing process & sun exposure result in loss of volume and again those annoying sun and age spots.  

When you have dermal fillers administered for hand wrinkles you will be amazed at the difference this simple procedure can make.  Plumping out the appearance of any raised veins, and generally smoothing out the areas that have lost volume.  The results are always very effective and pleasing.

At Austin Brewer aesthetics we use only the very best clinically proven dermal fillers.  Juvederm is always our filler of choice as it consistently delivers the smoothest, most natural-looking looking and longest-lasting results.

Removal of sun and age spots as mentioned above is another treatment that Austin can offer in the clinic.  Simple cryotherapy will eliminate these unwanted marks and the skin will once again look fresh and blemish-free.  Ask for more information when you book your dermal filler treatment for complete skin rejuvenation.

Other improvements that will help

Apply moisturiser

Drink plenty of water

Always wear SPF – every day

Try to limit time spent looking down at mobile phones etc

Stay out of the sun during the hottest part of the day

Wear a hat in the sun as this has the bonus of protecting your face and neck.  If the brim is wide enough it will also protect your décolletage.

One last, but very important thing to note…

Unfortunately and strangely dermal fillers are not regulated in the UK.  So essentially anyone can buy them and start injecting.  Scary thought.  So we strongly advise you to only see a medical professional to administer any kind of injectable treatments – especially dermal fillers, as the complications that can arise from poor injection technique and incorrect placement are terrible and can be life-changing.  So please do your research, ask questions and stay safe.

We hope you have enjoyed reading our “3 Areas You Didn’t Know Dermal Fillers Could Be Used”.  

Austin Brewer offers thorough consultations for all treatments at his discreet private clinic.  Conveniently located In Harley Street London or our Bournemouth and Poole clinic.  Appointments are available 7 days a week including evenings.  

 

What do I need to know about getting Lip Fillers near me?

Lip fillers are everywhere and they’re here to stay. So how do you choose which practitioner to let near your face? Do you just google “Lip fillers near me”. or “cheap lip filler” Or “Lip filler price”?  What do I need to know about lip filler?  

Just like everything in life, there’s the good, the bad & the ugly. The business of facial aesthetics is no different. We are here to give you a few pointers to ensure you stay safe. Austin Brewer has been creating beautiful and natural lips since 2004. From his aesthetics clinics in Harley Street London or the Poole and Bournemouth clinic, we know what we are doing, and as Austin says

“I wasn’t nicknamed the – Lip King, by a highly regarded Harley Street colleague for nothing!”

The best lip fillers…

…are the ones that suit your face. By using a reputable product such as Juvederm® and using a trained medical professional to administer the filler. How do I make my lips look bigger? How do I make my lips look more even? Where can I get lip filler near me? Deals on lip filler? All of these questions are on everyone’s lips (excuse the pun!). More about being wary of cheap lip fillers and questionable deals later.

The important fact to note is that Austin Brewer has been established at his private clinic near Sandbanks in Poole since 2004, and is also now available in Harley Street London. During that time has been trained by the world leaders in the industry.  Non-surgical facial aesthetics (lip fillers, Botox, etc) are all he does all day every day. He has built his business proud of the fact, that his patient’s wellbeing is always the most important factor. And of course, his excellent results speak for themselves.

The first and most important factor to mention here is No Reputable Aesthetic Practitioner will offer “Deals”. Neither will they agree to share product. So please respect your face and your well-being and find a practitioner not solely based on the price point.

What do I need to know before a lip augmentation treatment?

There are a lot of questions you will have when wanting to get lip fillers for the first time. Why are lip fillers so popular? Maybe you have moved to a new area and are not sure where to start. If you know people who have procedures, then you can see the practitioner’s work first-hand. You can then organise a consultation and ask as many questions as you wish.  

Celebrity lip fillers in the news

With barely a week going by without lip augmentation making the press. Kylie Jenner’s lips have taken on their persona entirely- first, it was has she? She denied it, admitted it, had them dissolved then had them redone! Fillers have also arrived on the high street via Superdrug. Even this well-known brand has come under scrutiny and criticism from the NHS. This meant they had to tighten up on their own practices. Including the very important side of any aesthetic treatment – mental health checks.  

We have to keep in mind a few things. Do you want the best or are you asking – what’s the cheapest lip filler? The main problem with this is, cheap never equals excellent. Yes, there are some areas of life where we may be able to save a few pounds. But do want to exercise economy when it comes to someone injecting your face? No Medical expert would try and get you to have work done, by trying to entice you with discounts and offers. This goes against good medical practice and their code of ethics.

Another important factor is to make sure you see the whole face in those before and after photos. The lips should balance the face out and not make you look completely unbalanced, like a walking pair of lips! So don’t just look at a close-up of the lips – ask to see the person’s whole face. If the practitioner can’t show you, then you should walk away.

Cheap deal or your well-being?

Do you know the other most important reason for using a medical professional for your treatments? Supposing something did go wrong? Such as you having a severe allergic reaction which leaves you struggling for breath. Wouldn’t it be much more reassuring that if any such unfortunate issue did arise, you were already in safe hands with a medical professional? Who would have plenty of experience to assist you with the appropriate medical equipment already there?

Cheap lip fillers near me

It’s easy to lose track of how significant it is to let someone near your face with a needle. Look at your face. Do you still want to risk someone who doesn’t know what they’re doing injecting you? Especially when there can be all sorts of complications. We don’t want to put you off or scare you. With the rise of unqualified beauticians, and fake or counterfeit products being bought online. (if you can buy a fake Louis Vuitton online you can certainly buy fake filler too). Everyone needs to be aware of what they are receiving in return for their hard-earned money.

 Your dermal filler should always be bought from a reputable pharmacy. By your medical practitioner and should always be hyaluronic acid.  Lip fillers are a non-surgical procedure. Never have permanent filler, because if something goes wrong you’ll need surgery to remove it.  

Although deciding to have lip filler augmentation is a cosmetic procedure. It should always be a very well-considered decision and carried out in a sterile clinic after a thorough consultation.

Your face is worth the best

It’s awful to think that there are people out there, with too good-to-be-true prices. Are they luring people to lose sight of their well-being? It certainly is not your best interests that they care about, how can it be? They are deceiving and enticing people to part with their money, only to be left unhappy with substandard results. Results at best are unsymmetrical or overfilled lips anyone? Or possibly there was nothing injected at all? Have you ever noticed your lip filler seems to disappear quickly? So you have to keep returning. Which then costs more money over time. Therefore causes more trauma to your lips when they have to be retouched every few months. Here at Austin Brewer our lip fillers last for 1 year to 18 months, sometimes even longer.

What can go wrong with cheap lip fillers?

A worst-case scenario would be a vascular occlusion. This is one of the more serious complications (this can happen with any facial filler). It usually results in hospital intervention. Providing diagnosis and treatment is sought quickly. The surgeons will be able to save your face before necrosis. Necrosis is when your skin tissue starts to die. If this did happen you would be left with a permanent hole in your face. Unfortunately, the sad fact is these are becoming more common. So when someone who has little or no medical background is giving you cheap lip filler, you are at risk. People simply have to be made aware of the real risks associated with getting lip filler.  

The future of dermal fillers…

The reports that the government plans to make fillers prescriptions – only from 2020. (Source Harpers Bazaar 2020), just as Botox is prescription- only already, this at least is a step in the right direction. Please don’t be put off having lip fillers, but use caution in your decision of choosing your practitioner. Creating beautiful plump and symmetrical lips are straightforward procedure. That needs to be carried out by a medical professional and in a suitable clinical environment.

How to stay safe when getting lip fillers

Please stay safe and make sure you know all the facts about your practitioner, and the product they will be injecting.

Can jowls be lifted without surgery?

Can I smooth, shape and tighten my jawline without surgery? the answer is most certainly yes. Can jowls be lifted without surgery? Yes, yes & yes! you do not need to live with those jowls, double chin, or saggy skin, whichever way you describe it, there is an answer.  You may be thinking “Do I need to go under the knife?” “Do I need a full facelift?” Don’t worry the answer is no, keep reading to find out why.

Smooth and tighten your jawline using Juvederm filler - lifting your jowls without surgery in Harley Street, Bournemouth & Poole
Smooth & tighten your jawline using Juvederm filler

Can jowls be lifted without surgery?

Unfortunately, nature can be unkind and so can gravity, but fortunately, there is now a treatment, to lift those jowls—a facelift without surgery, using filler.  The filler we use is Juvederm, Hyaluronic acid, which is not as scary as it sounds. Our skin cells produce hyaluronic acid naturally to maintain moisture levels. Due to ageing and environmental factors, our faces are literally “faced” daily, and our natural levels take a dip.  This can cause, dullness, fine lines and uneven skin tone and texture, which are none of the things that give us youthful-looking skin.

But why do I get jowls?

Our jawline is a major part of the scaffolding for our entire face, so as those signs of ageing start to happen, what we are seeing is a loss of elasticity and volume which causes those horrible jowls.  A naturally defined jawline will not make you look like a man (unless of course, you are a man who would like a more chiselled and defined look in which case we can do that too, have a look here), in the hands of the right practitioner you will achieve a naturally beautiful jawline that is subtly and delicately contoured not chiselled. So back to our original question – Can jowls be lifted without surgery? Absolutely and definitely!

“I have always wanted to give my clients the most beautiful & natural results” Austin Brewer

So what can help lift my jowls?

When we are young we have, what the facial aesthetics industry calls a “triangle of youth”. This means there is more volume in the upper face. This then tapers down into a ‘v’ shape at the jaw. These shapes are nothing new they are the mathematical ideals of beauty. But as we age this “triangle of youth” actually ends up turned upside down. So the heaviness is now in the lower part of the face, causing a saggy look. 

This is why defining the jawline can have such a skin-tightening effect. Combined with some cheek filler the overall effect is smooth and tightened skin. Which is not overstretched, like a regular surgical facelift would leave you with. Instead, the skin looks plump in the right places and contoured where it should be. You could call it “a real-life filter” 

Learning how to define the jawline is surprisingly important to many of us. A 2017 study by The American Society for Dermatologic Surgery found that 67 per cent of the people surveyed were bothered by excess fat and skin around their chin and neck.  With all the latest trends in our Instagram feeds of some very pulled tight high ponytails. (as seen on Kylie Jenner in the latest edition of Vogue – January 2020). This treatment revolution could not have come at a better time.

Our secret weapon against jowls – Juvederm

The saviour of all of our lower face distress is Juvederm’s latest hyaluronic acid filler Volux. It has been created with jawlines at the forefront of its development. Volux is the most advanced and superior product currently on the market, and it’s made for this very job.  Juvederm Volux has a very strong reputation as a product for transforming jawlines.

Since its launch, we have seen excellent results here at Austin Brewer Facial Aesthetics. One of the most popular questions in my clinic is “Can jowls be lifted without surgery”? And as we tell them, yes they can. Our clients have all been very impressed with the transformation of their jawlines.  Combining the best hyaluronic filler and some very advanced training in “M D Codes” specialised for achieving such natural results. This is something which Austin Brewer is a proud advocate of,

“The days of overfilled lips and cheeks are looking like they are turning a corner. I’m very pleased they are becoming a thing of the past. I have always wanted to give my clients the most beautiful and natural results.”

Advanced treatments – excellent results

And so the rise of the popular liquid facelift has continued to become one of our most popular treatments. This is mostly down to the fact that it looks so very natural.

MD Codes are the groundbreaking treatment using Juvederm fillers to lift your jowls without surgery Smooth and tighten your jawline using Juvederm filler - lifting your jowls without surgery in Harley Street, Bournemouth & Poole

We are very pleased to be one of the first clinics to offer Juvederm Volux. We have been offering this jawline sculpting treatment since its launch, and treatment is available at our clinics in Harley Street London, Bournemouth & Poole. 

So remember, having a defined jawline does not mean you will end up looking like a man. It will, however, give you a defined natural jaw enhancement without having surgery.  If you are wondering how long jawline filler will last? you’ll be pleased to hear that the instant results will last you approx 18 months and there is no downtime.

3 Ways You Can Contour & Slim Your Face and Jaw Using Fillers

Contour & Slim your face…

Celebrities, make-up artists and social media influencers have been using tricks to contour & slim their clients’ faces for years.  To enhance and create a more flattering facial appearance.  You can contour & slim your face by using a combination of concealer, bronzer and highlighter.  Most importantly, contouring can give the illusion of prominent cheekbones, a slimmer nose and a more defined jawline.  Although this makeup process can achieve good results, it requires a lot of skill, product and time.  However, why not contour and slim your face so you always look naturally radiant?  So you don’t need access to the world’s top makeup artists in the morning!.

A much more effective alternative is using dermal fillers to contour and slim your face to emphasise your facial features.  Facial fillers provide definition and therefore contour your features without the need for heavy makeup or plastic surgery.
Interested in finding out more? Read on to discover three ways you can contour your face with fillers:

Define your jawline

Firstly, genetics will play a huge part in whether you have a defined jawline.  If your jawbone is closer to your neck, it can appear less defined.  Age can also play a part in a changing jawline.  But the effects of ageing can be reduced without the need for invasive surgery.  If you’re unhappy with your current jawline, facial remodelling using dermal fillers may therefore be a suitable option for you.

If your jawline is sagging, using dermal fillers in the surrounding and specific areas, excess skin can be lifted and add volume, filling out any drooping areas.  Austin Brewer, who is a skilled and artistic facial aesthetic practitioner, can sculpt and shape the jawline by adding dermal filler into these key areas.

If you have dimples or lines on or around your chin and jawline, these too can be filled with chin and jaw fillers by adding volume to any skin indents.  The results are immediate and can help restore a fresh and youthful appearance.
Fillers can be applied to help even out the shape and define the lower half of your face for a more balanced appearance. They can also soften jowls and correct the appearance of your side profile.

Slimmer nose

Non-surgical facial remodelling can also be used to give the appearance of a slimmer nose.  Fillers can also even out any lumps and bumps on your nose.

If you don’t want to commit to plastic surgery, would like a bump in your nose straightened out, or would like it to appear slender, this can be achieved using dermal fillers.  Dermal fillers are a great option for patients who would just like a small correction without surgery.  Reshaping can be achieved quickly and comfortably and is therefore becoming a popular alternative to rhinoplasty.

Highlight your cheekbones

For patients who wish to enhance the appearance of their cheekbones.  This simple dermal filler treatment alone certainly can make a huge difference to your face shape and confidence.  Dermal fillers add volume to sunken areas and, as a result, create beautifully contoured cheekbones.

Non-surgical facial remodelling can perfect facial proportions and enhance natural beauty.  Austin Brewer only uses 100% hyaluronic acid-based fillers, which are highly biocompatible.

Treatments are mostly painless and are injected using an ultra-thin needle.  Sometimes patients will feel a slight discomfort, but this subsequently fades soon after the application.

How a Non-Surgical Nose Job Can Transform Your Look

Non-surgical nose jobs are becoming more and more popular, and it’s easy to understand why.  Results are seen instantly, it’s more affordable than rhinoplasty, and the recovery time is minimal.  If you’ve always wanted to tweak your nose shape to enhance your overall look, then read on and discover why a non-surgical nose job will be the best option for you.

Why is a non-surgical nose job better?

Many people have concerns about going under the knife, as plastic surgery is extremely invasive.  Surgery needs plenty of downtime and requires an anaesthetic.  If you prefer not to have permanent surgery, a non-surgical nose job may be more appealing.  Treatment is less risky and has fewer side effects.

The results are immediately noticeable, and the recovery time is faster.  Initially, you may notice some swelling, but this is temporary.  Any swelling generally settles down after 24 hours.

Almost all of us have seen a rhinoplasty that looks unconvincing, but non-surgical nose jobs give a natural appearance.

How does it work?

Dermal fillers are injected into specific areas to provide balance or to accentuate your nose shape.  The facial fillers are used to even out bumps and create a straight line.  If your main concern is that your nose is too wide, filler can also be inserted into the end of your nose to lift the tip and give the appearance of a thinner shape.

How long will the results last?

One of the key benefits of this non-surgical procedure is that the effects aren’t permanent.  Your results will last between six and eighteen months.  This time frame varies patient to patient as different volumes of fillers can be used to reach the desired look.

Why should I choose Austin Brewer?

Surgery Or Non-Surgical Facelift – Which Is Best For You?

Non-surgical facelifts are ideal if you’re looking for a way to revitalise, refresh and enhance. Looking at your facial aesthetics desires, you may have thought about having a facelift. With so many cosmetic treatments available, such as facelifts and facial remodelling, we look at what option would be best for you.

Surgical facelifts

A surgical facelift is designed to give you a more youthful appearance by reducing sagging skin. Carried out under general anaesthetic, the surgeon will make incisions into the skin, pull it upwards and then stitch it into its new position. It usually takes around two to three hours to perform, and most patients will stay overnight. It can take up to nine months to recover, and you may need to take some time off work. As with any type of surgery, there are possible risks. If you take blood-thinning medications or have a condition which prevents blood clotting, you would not be able to have a surgical facelift. It is also not recommended for smokers, as you may have reduced wound healing capabilities.

Non-surgical facelifts

A non-surgical facelift in our Harley Street Clinic or A non-surgical facelift in our Bournemouth & Poole Clinic.  Allows you to alter the look of specific areas of your face using dermal fillers. Eliminating the need to go under the knife, this quick procedure provides instant results and can have a recovery time of as little as 24 hours.
There is minimal risk compared to surgery, as there is no need for anaesthesia. It is a much more cost-effective way of achieving that smooth and even complexion. As results last between six and eighteen months, there is no long-term commitment.
Facial fillers also help to reverse the signs of ageing by increasing the volume and ‘plumpness’ of the skin’s texture. The added volume gives your complexion a youthful softness. In contrast, surgery will simply stretch the skin out, which can leave you with a hollow and sunken appearance.

Non-surgical nose job

A non-surgical nose job works in the same way as a non-surgical facelift. If you are looking to straighten your nose, fillers can be inserted to even out any bumps. If you want a thinner nose, dermal filler can be applied to the tip to create that illusion.

8 Point Face Lift

MD Codes – The advanced dermal filler treatment is used to guide the points where fillers are injected at optimum placement to complement the natural contours of your face. It mimics the look of a surgical facelift by rejuvenating your appearance and reducing lines and wrinkles, and it can also tighten and smooth the skin.  The same as that of a surgical facelift, but it eliminates the lengthy recovery process and unsightly scars.

Please contact us directly if you would like more information about our cosmetic treatments, including Polynucleotides, micro skin needling or Exosomes E50.

What Are Injectable Moisturisers And Skin Boosters?

As the summer comes to a close, most of us swap to a more heavy-duty moisturiser. The winter weather calls for a higher level of hydration and injectable moisturisers are the ideal solution. Injectable moisturisers (or skin boosters) are the hottest cosmetic trend right now. Read on to find out why.

How Do Injectable Moisturisers Work?

Volite is the latest anti-ageing treatment from the famous Botox® brand, Juvéderm. The Volite contains hyaluronic acid, which naturally occurs in the body to plump and hydrate the skin. Just one treatment provides a whole nine months of dermal hydration. The result? A beautiful glowing, dewy complexion. Skin boosters like Juvéderm Volite plump and even the skin and can help reduce fine lines.

How Are Moisture Injections Different To Dermal Fillers?

The hyaluronic acid in moisture injections is more aqueous than in traditional dermal fillers. This fluid texture allows the moisture to spread evenly across the skin. The flowing hyaluronic acid in injectable moisturisers is well suited for hands, neck and décolletage application.

Why Is Juvéderm Volite Moisturiser Treatment Better Than Normal Moisturisers?

There are plenty of anti-ageing moisturisers on the market, however these can only be applied on top of the skin. Your complexion will only retain a small amount of moisture from topical creams. However, injectable moisturisers stimulate under the skin barrier to increase the body’s own production of collagen and also elastin to rejuvenate your complexion.

Where Can I Get A Skin Booster Treatment?

An experienced aesthetic practitioner, Austin Brewer, has years of experience applying cosmetic treatments with Juvéderm products. Juvéderm Volite is ideal for anyone who wants more skin moisture and equally a glowing complexion. Visit our skin clinic in Bournemouth to find out more.

What is a liquid facelift?

What is a liquid facelift? also known as a non-surgical facelift.  Here at Austin Brewer Facial Aesthetics, we can offer an all-around solution that’s better than a cream but less drastic than going under the knife.  Despite the claims of beauty creams, products and lotions, no external moisturiser will truly eradicate wrinkles. However, not everyone is willing to go under the knife to achieve a youthful look. Luckily, there is a solution. Read on to discover why ‘liquid facelifts’ are the ideal solution for non-surgical, effective results.

How does a liquid facelift work?

A ‘liquid facelift’ uses dermal fillers and Botox®, strategically inserted into specific areas of the face to emulate the results of a surgical facelift. Dermal fillers contain biocompatible hyaluronic acid to moisturise the skin and boost skin tone. Botox is made from Botulinum Toxin Type A, an intensely purified protein that relaxes the muscle area. Both are used together to diminish the appearance of wrinkles and sagging to create a natural-looking, youthful result.

How long do the results last?

The results of the treatment can last anywhere between one and two years. The length of the results may depend on which areas of the face are targeted. The effects of a liquid facelift can be seen almost instantly after the cosmetic treatment, after any mild swelling has dissipated after 24 hours.

What if I don’t want Botox?

If you are interested in the idea of a liquid facelift but are not sure if you are ready for Botox, or perhaps you simply don’t need it just yet. Talk to your aesthetic practitioner about an 8-point facelift. This is similar to a liquid facelift but uses only dermal fillers. The facial fillers are inserted into specific areas of the face as outlined by the MD code system.

Where can I get a liquid facelift?

For natural and reliable results, consult a qualified and experienced aesthetic practitioner. Austin Brewer has over 25 years of experience producing wrinkle treatments with outstanding results.
